    I agree with all of this, except I also hate Sloane. (I do like Margaret though.) I think with a surname like yours, you're going to have difficulty making any name not sound preppy. You'd have to go with something like Kylie (and I really, really hope you don't). Just remember there's nothing wrong with having a beautiful, classic name. "Preppy" names are a modern invention--they used to be called traditional.

    I know that My maiden name is  Stewart so I am used to classic last names and do not have a problem whatsoever with it, and no there will be no Kylee, I work with a girl named Kylee and people do not take her seriously, they always ask if she was like a cheerleader or something?

    I love Sebastian Rhys (but ONLY spelled correctly!)

    Cole Dalton is nice.. I love Dalton! Dalton Cole flows better, IMO.

     

    Also LOVE Sloane Margaret!

    I love all of his boy choices, especially Charles.

    I like Caroline and Sloane the best, and do not like Alexa.

    I like Sebastian and William best out of the boy names.  For girls, I love Caroline Grace (a friend of mine has a little girl with that name).

    If you live in Manhanatan, I know 4 Sebastians, if that matters to you.

    I would also avoid Dalton, because that is the name of the fancy private school.

    My favorites are Charles and Caroline.

    Sebastian (correctly spelled) is fine.  I hate Rhys.  It just looks wrong.

    Cole is fine, doesn't sound right with Dalton.

    Charles is a great name, don't like it paired with Percy.

    William James is my favorite.

    I love Caroline Grace and Lillian Rene. 

    Alexa is a bit 1990s for my taste, but not bad.

    I don't like Sloane for a girl.

    I really like all of your boy name choices -- especially Charles and Sebastian (I see it spelled Sebastien a lot too, which is the french variation). The nicknames Charlie and Bas are too adorable!!

    Not a big fan of the middle names Percy or Dalton though. 

    As for your girl names the only one I kinda like is Lillian Renee (I've never seen Renee spelled Rene...??). Caroline is kinda blah to me, Sloane just isn't very feminine IMO, and Alexa is too cutesy/trendy.

    Love all the boys names (except Percy as a middle name....though, at least as a middle name the bullies probably won't find out about it). Sebastian Rhys is my favorite.

     Love all the girls names except Alexa. Sloane Margaret is my favorite (my mother still wishes she had named me Sloane instead of Allie). Caroline Grace is a close second (though shortening it to Cari sounds silly to me. Caroline is such a pretty name. Cari is...not.)

    Its funny that  said that because I went to Dalton and that was my thinking ...but its a family name on his side so.... most of the middle names like Percy is also a family name... though it made me gag a little.

    Sabastian Rhys - Sebastian needs the proper spelling, so with the right spelling - like a lot

    Cole Dalton - I like Cole and I like Dalton, but not in this arrangement

    Charles Percy - love Charles, can't stand Percy

    Wiilliam James - Good, solid, but safe name (I'm assuming the spelling was a typo?)

     Girls-

    Sloane Margaret - s'okay. I'm on the fence about Sloane, love Margaret

    Lillian Rene - Love Lillian. Rene is okay too, but not my style since it's a French boys name. Renee is the feminine form, but then I really don't like it.

    Alexa Leigh - s'okay - not my style, but not horrid

    Caroline Grace ( nick name would be Cari) - nice classic name with a safe middle name.
